DEONTAY WILDER CONTINUES TO MAKE THREATS TOWARDS BREAZEAL IN INVOLVEMENT WITH HIS FAMILY.Deontay Wilder and Dominic Breazeale were involved in a nasty altercation last year, they’ve been on a collision course.
Breazeale claimed that Wilder and a “mob of about 20 people” attacked him and his family after the heavyweights both scored knockout victories on a Fox-televised card in April 2017 in Birmingham, Alabama.
While Wilder chased a heavyweight title unification fight with Anthony Joshua, Breazeale waited in the shadows for his own shot at settling the score. And when talks for Joshua-Wilder fell apart, it was widely expected Brezeale would step in for the lower-profile grudge match this fall.
Then Tyson Fury entered the picture, and negotiations continue toward a potential Showtime pay-per-view fight between the lineal champion and Wilder in November. Wilder will be ringside in Belfast on Saturday for Fury’s tune-up bout against Francesco Pianeta, and it seems a mere formality that he’ll meet the Brit this fall. But Breazeale remains on Wilder’s mind. “Fu– Breazeale, that’s how I feel about Breazeale. I say fu– Breazeale,” Wilder, said during an interview with The Ring last month. “Breazeale gonna get what he’s got coming, and people know when I speak (I follow through). “He needs to be reserving his time with his family — with his kids — because when he get in the ring with me, I’m going to cripple something; I’ll make sure of that. So Breazeale, spend as much time with your family as possible, brother. So stop talking my name. And when I get you, I’m going to get you.” The WBC titleholder was criticized last year for threatening to badly injure Bermane Stiverne, but he insists that his WWE-style promos are simply part of his “Bronze Bomber” persona and not a representation of how truly how he feels.
Just when Wilder will get his hands on Breazeale is another matter. He was incredibly frustrated when the super fight with Joshua failed to come to fruition, but a matchup with Fury would present another high-stakes bout.
A title defense against Breazeale is appealing only because of all the bad blood that surrounds them.

What fury said after him and Joshua had a sparing session. For whatever reason fury is extremely envious and Jealous of Ajs successes and how for the most part he is treated by the British public. Tbh I can see why fury is very envious to some degree as for whatever reason Joshua got more respect from the British public than fury ever did. But the problem with fury and I do respect him for this but he is extremely outspoken and very unpolitical correct. However Joshua is the total opposite as he seems very politically correct but a lot of that comes Across as fake but with fury you know he isn’t scared to speak his much much like the great Muhammad Ali. But the problem with fury you have to take anything he says with a grain of salt. An example of this is when he said “Joshua will need a miracle to beat Charles Martin and he has a punchers chance” and whenever he gets the chance to smear over Joshua’s career he will take any chance he gets. But that’s the thing about fury he’s very good for boxing due to his antics just for entertainment value. Hopefully we can see a fight between this around 2019-2020 but at the moment fury is unwilling to get in the ring with Joshua as for obvious reason he’s been out of almost 3 years had extremely achohol depression had to lose almost 200lbs and most importantly has to get into the right mental state as for this reason this is one of the many reasons why he was out for almost 3 years. But on Saturday he makes a return for his second comeback fight against pieanetta while potential opponents Deontay Wilder and Shannon Briggs will be there so hopefully it’s fireworks 🔥 in the makeing
